Not to be missed: The Ohio State Buckeyes’ head coach, Ryan Day, recently announced his resignation because of
After suffering a third consecutive defeat to Michigan on Saturday, one former Ohio State standout has had enough.
Legendary Ohio State coach Maurice Clarett pushed for Day’s dismissal after Ohio State lost its third straight game, 30–24, against its bitter rivals, Michigan.
Clarett thanked Day in a post on X, but the coach makes too much money to keep losing the biggest games.
You are paid millions because of this. Clarett said, “I can’t get paid nine minutes and lose three straight.”
The school released a statement claiming that Commissioner Petitti’s sudden decision today indicates that caving in to pressure from other Conference members is more important than following the law impartially and fairly. “The Commissioner is putting himself on the sidelines and distorting the level playing field that he professes to be defending by acting at this late hour. Furthermore, it is hardly impartial to try to prevent the group from seeking urgent legal relief on Veteran’s Day, which is observed as a court holiday.
We intend to file a court injunction with Coach Harbaugh in order to guarantee procedural justice and prevent the imposition of this disciplinary consequence.
